[QUOTE="bluehdmc, post: 928945, member: 18471"] Fedex does ship by rail, went to a Norfolk Southern yard one Friday nite was suprised to see a few Fedex ground trailers. Maybe they just do this on weekends like we send certain loads over the rails on weekends. The Meadowlands can be all kinds of fun with 53's since it seems the yard, (like most) was only designed for 40's. For 450 cu ft more space than a 48' if it's loaded 100%. Ends up taking an extra 10 min or so to put one on a door. IE says it will work though ;-) Rumor has it they want to use the 53's for sleeper teams, tamdem tractors so there shouldn't be any weight issues. Less problems with dolly breakdowns. Just about every trucking co uses 53's [/QUOTE]
